We were asked a LOT of questions when we showed up to a local race with more than 90 of our teammates - my roommate claimed that she was asked how many camp counselors we had. Uhhhhh...

We ran at nearly 4,000 feet elevation - which, for many of us, was HARD, yo. (Having unlimited Deschutes Twilight Summer Ale post race made up for it.)We were blown away by the beauty of Smith Rock. I need to go back there ASAP.

We sat by a pool without having to keep children from drowning! So relaxing!

Actually not a beer - I may now be addicted to Kombucha...

We stretched and meditated with Jasyoga - and I didn't have to drive to Seattle from the Eastside to do so!

We were led in campfire songs by Lauren Fleshman, like whoa.

We ran the river trail along the Deschutes, which was right behind our resort.

We shopped and imbibed as much as possible in town. Bend is adorable.

We ate our last dinner together alfresco at sunset, which included amazing street tacos and doughnuts for dessert!

Me and one of my roommies, Raine who I got to spend the most time with - love her!

We witnessed the hilarity when 100 women descend upon a cute little bar, in a little town, with a little dance floor. I was cry laughing at many points during this trip, but mostly on this night.

Yes, this was the most bare bones post ever, but it would really take way too long to go into every wonderful detail of this amazing trip. Many times I found myself saying that it's a lot like Ragnar, but with a little more sleep and a lot more showers: bonding, running, great times and so many inside jokes (Sir, this bus is on fire! & She's living her best life!). I'm so thankful to Oiselle for the years of camaraderie and to Sally, Sarah, Kristin, Katie the Little Wing gals and everyone at The Nest that made this all possible. We made memories that will last a lifetime. We were 'living our best life' last week, that is for sure. I already miss you Bend, and can't wait to see you again...

OMGEE! Luv this post friend! I need to write up a post too. So happy I got to room & spend so much time with you! <3 A few of my fav parts of this post: "Sir, this bus is on fire!" & "We sat by a pool without having to keep children from drowning! So relaxing!".....had a really great time! Here's till next year's #birdcamp...but hopefully I'll make it to Seattle by then! <3 ;)
